Watch the amazing new parody videos by “Weird Al”

“Weird Al” Yankovic, the reigning king of pop parodies and polkas, is back with a new album called “Mandatory Fun.” To celebrate its release, he’s putting out eight videos in eight days. But we couldn’t wait for them all to arrive to share so here are the first four, all brilliant in their own way. We’ll spare you the “Weird Al” think piece except to note that since going mainstream with his Michael Jackson parody “Eat It” in 1984, he has managed to stay relevant longer than many of his subjects.

“Weird Al” Yankovic – Handy (Parody of “Fancy”)

Today, “Weird Al” released “Handy,” which is his home improvement themed take on Iggy Azalea and Charli XCX’s “Fancy.” Not only does he sport an amazing denim vest and blond wig in the video but also manages to slip in a nod to Jay Z’s “99 Problems”: “I got 99 problems but a switch ain’t one.”
